Driving Directions:
Take HIGHWAY 5 south all the way to the INTERNATIONAL BORDER. When you cross the border you want to be in the FIRST LANE FROM THE RIGHT.
All of the lanes will split off from one another and go in different directions.
The lane you are in will have a SIGN, that says “ENSENADA ROSARITO SCENIC ROAD” you want to make sure that you follow this sign. Making a right turn towards the scenic road to PLAYAS DE TIJUANA.
You are now headed WEST alongside the border fence.
You will drive for a couple of miles making your way up to the top of a big hill. At the top of the hill the road will curve to the left and head downhill. Towards the bottom of the road will split to the RIGHT, again, the SIGN will say ROSARITO, ENSENADA AND PLAYAS.
Take this split to the right and follow it until you come to the exit PLAYAS DE TIJUANA. From the split to the exit is about 1 mile.
Take the exit straight down into PLAYAS and go to the SECOND STOP LIGHT.
The HOSPITAL will be on your LEFT and the BULLRING by the sea will be on your right. The hospital is a FOUR STORY, PEACH STUCCO, AND GLASS BUILDING.

What Makes Oasis Medical Institute Unique?
At Oasis Medical Institute, our facility and staff are more than just a hospital or clinic, we are a family of survivors, providers, and advocates on a mission of healing and empowerment for patients and their families who have impacted by Lyme Disease, cancer, environmental disease, and other chronic illnesses. As Lyme Disease and tick-borne illness is a complicated multi-systemic disease, we know that receiving treatment can be scary, to say the least, which is why the Oasis Family is committed to supporting and empowering you through every step of this journey to healing starting today.
Through active collaboration with ILADS and other associations, regional self-help groups, and patient organizations, the Oasis Medical Institute educates patients, providers, and medical organizations on living with chronic disease and how to adapt to a wellness lifestyle to promote longevity and regain your health. At Oasis, our philosophy is simple: We believe in a clinic and a natural approach to wellness based on the belief that good health is about much more than the absence of illness. We combined alternative treatments and advanced research-based medicine to empower our patients with the necessary tools to achieve maximum wellness.
Patient Testimonials
The greatest testimony to the benefits and results of our treatment at Oasis Medical Institute comes from the inspiring stories told by actual patients and their families. Don’t take our word for it, please take a moment to watch these amazing stories and know that we are always ready and eager to make a difference in your life or the life of a loved one who may be dealing with tick-borne Illness.
At Oasis Medical Institute, we believe one of the best ways to learn about our treatments, and what truly makes our approach to integrative medicine different, is to listen to the experiences of our patients to treat the person and not the diagnosis.
